Product overview

ECS-HT VDE silicone ignition wire for burner and appliance circuits

TEBAOFLEX ECS-HT VDE ignition wire is a flexible silicone-insulated single-core wire for ignition circuits that create an electric arc. The supplied information identifies piezo-electric components in household electrical appliances and gas or oil burners for boilers and professional appliances as the intended equipment. With a stated continuous operating range of −60°C to +180°C, the ECS-HT VDE ignition wire provides a defined option where an ordinary appliance wire would not match the system’s temperature or pulse-voltage requirements.

The supplied flexible ECS-HT VDE ignition wire sizes are 0.75, 1.0 and 1.5 mm². Each uses a class 5 tin-plated copper conductor and EI2 silicone-rubber insulation. The product data gives a 1.8/3.0 kV rated voltage and 10 kV pulse voltage; it should not be treated as a substitute for a screened, armoured or mechanically protected cable where the equipment route requires those features.

  • Suitable for: stated ignition circuits, piezo-electric components, and gas or oil burner equipment.
  • Confirm before ordering: ECS-HT VDE ignition wire system voltage, pulse requirement, size, colour, cable length, route and termination.
  • Choose another construction when: the installation needs a screen, mechanical protection or an environmental performance rating not supplied for this ECS-HT VDE ignition wire.

See the high-temperature cable range for other heat-resistant cable constructions. Detailed ECS-HT VDE ignition wire construction, applications, nominal data and standard references are in the technical tabs.

Construction

ECS-HT VDE ignition wire construction

The supplied ECS-HT VDE ignition wire construction is a single flexible, tin-plated copper conductor with silicone-rubber insulation. The conductor is class 5 under IEC 60228 / DIN VDE 0295, and the supplied insulation reference is silicone rubber type EI2 under DIN EN 50363-1.

For an ignition circuit, this simple single-core construction should be selected against the required voltage, conductor size, termination and routing conditions. The ECS-HT VDE ignition wire is not a screened or armoured cable; confirm any mechanical protection, separation and termination requirements in the equipment design.

Selection checks for ECS-HT VDE ignition wire

  • Confirm the ignition-system voltage, pulse requirement, conductor size and total route length.
  • Check the equipment temperature profile against the stated continuous operating range of −60°C to +180°C.
  • Confirm the required silicone-insulation colour, sheath marking and termination arrangement.
  • Where the route is exposed to abrasion, movement, liquids or other external conditions, define the required protection with the equipment design; those conditions are not supplied as ECS-HT VDE ignition wire performance ratings.

For a technical quotation, send the existing cable marking or model, required ECS-HT VDE ignition wire cross-section, colour, length, quantity, burner or appliance type, and any requested documentation.
